of coal on hand from which to fill the

snow blockade or other calamity . .that

Their orders have not all boon tilled
uud their stock is not as complete
as it would have been bad their

mine owners they have managed to
prevent any thing approaching a iiunluo.
while they have oven been able to as
sist neighboring dealers who have been
less fortunate.

A Reply to Senator Allen.
Wnmervillo , Dee 20. To THE NKWS :
W. V. Allen devotes a column in the
liist issue of the Madison Mail to mo.
Ho states that I am station ngont at
Warnervillo. That is untrue. M. R.
Morris was removed from this station
eight years ago and the station locked
up. Most of the time since I have oc
cupied the building with my stock of
general merchandise and the postoflico.
As I bny my own fuel and pay my own
bills I fail to understand why I should
bo expected to turn out at 3 o'clock in
the morning to entertain a party of
travelers foolish enough to undertake a
trip from Norfolk to Madison over this
road without a supply of provisions and
bedding.
For several weeks post I have been
sitting up until midnight on an average
to receive and deliver the mails from
aud to the passing trains , and as I put
in 10 hours per day in my place of busi
ness I think I am entitled to some sleep
after my day's labor. If Mr. Allen be
came hungry during his enforced stay
in Warnervillo , ho should have applied
to the Warnervillo boarding house where
food and lodging are furnished for a
consideration. O. A. SLBEPEU.
